He gets up early in the morning and goes out in search of work. Then he work hard from dawn to dusk for and gets his wages at evening. Then he goes to market, buys his daily necessaries and returns to his house. His income is very low. He lives from hand to mouth. When he gets more work, he earns more and then he and the members of his family eat well. Sometimes he and his family go without food if he cannot manage work. In harvesting season his work is in great demand and he can earn more. Then he can meet the bare necessaries of his life with his additional income. But in leisure period, when there is not much work for him, his conditions become worse.  The life of a day labourer is full of sorrows and sufferings. He can hardly enjoy peace and happiness.
